Research direction

Start at the GET path reference #/paths/~1search~1issues/get and the example #/components/examples/issue-search-result-item-paginated-lexical-fallback/value. Compare the example's items entries with #/components/schemas/issue-search-result-item; done means the example and schema accept the same structure, including the lexical fallback response.

Schema Inaccuracy

This is the JSON ref for the example

#/components/examples/issue-search-result-item-paginated-lexical-fallback/value

Schema and example mismatch. items is supposed to be of type #/components/schemas/issue-search-result-item but the example contains a String with ellipsis.

Here's a snippet

    1: {
    2:   "incomplete_results" : false,
>   3:   "items" : [ "..." ],
    4:   "lexical_fallback_reason" : [ "quoted_text" ],
    5:   "search_type" : "lexical",
    6:   "total_count" : 280
    7: }

Affected Schema Refs

#/paths/~1search~1issues/get

Expected

The schema and example are in sync
